From UK Roots to Spanish Shores I'm originally from the UK, where I spent my formative years and received my education. Life then took me on an exciting adventure to sunny Spain, where I now happily reside. Beyond enjoying the Spanish climate and culture, I'm an avid bridge player. The strategic thinking and social aspects of the game keep me mentally sharp and provide opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals. However, my true passion lies in the digital realm. I've had the pleasure of creating and launching several websites, immersing myself in the world of web development. But my greatest satisfaction comes from successfully developing online businesses that generate income. It's a constant learning process, but the thrill of building something from scratch and seeing it flourish is incredibly rewarding. When I'm not glued to the screen, you might find me out on the water as a keen yachtsman. There's something truly invigorating about sailing, the feeling of freedom, and the challenge of harnessing the power of the wind. Whether it's bridge games, building online ventures, or navigating the open seas, I'm always up for a challenge and enjoy the journey of continuous learning.
